This book contains almost 200 solved problems relating to nanotechnology. These problems are divided in four sections: Chemistry Fundamentals and Principles, Particle Technology, Applications, and Environmental Concerns. In addition to the solved examples, each section contains overview coverage of the subject matter. A key feature of the book is that the solutions can be presented in a stand-alone manner, and the problems are laid out to develop the reader's understanding of the subjects. Special Features Develops an understanding of nanotechnology for practicing engineers and scientists in environmental and industrial fields Provides an overview using illustrative example problems and solutions that are arranged as an orderly and logical progression, but they can also stand on their own Focuses on problems, which are often the best way to learn a subject Addresses the needs of both the environmental engineer/scientist in industry and students in environmental studies Bridges the gap between the developing industry of nanomanufacturing and the existing understanding of environmental issues Serves as both a text for students and a reference for those already in industry About the Author Louis Theodore Eng. Sc.D., is a consultant for Theodore Tutorials, a company specializing in providing training needs to industry, academia, and government.   In addition to receiving awards from both the International Air and Waste Management Association and the American Society for Engineering Education, Dr. Theodore is author/co-author of numerous books, including Nanotechnology: Environmental Implications and Solutions; Introduction to Hazardous Waste Incineration, Second Edition; and Handbook of Chemical and Environmental Engineering Calculations.
